CSS layout Problems!

Hi

Working on my first site using CSS and having a little issue with the layout and things.

Here's screen shots of my page is various browsers. The relevent browsers are IE7 (that's the one most folk are using) and Opera - the one I like to use.

Anyway You can see that Only Chrome displays the pages properly, the main issues with the other browsers being the Edit/Add has a line going right through, Gecko seems to draw a white box in a seemingly random place, and the IE7 draws the add edit under the line and IE6 does something weird with the top box....

PICS:
chrome 3

opera10

ie7

seamonkey1.7

IE6

FF3.5.3

full size http://whitecrook.ath.cx/resize/full/

css here http://whitecrook.ath.cx/resize/mystyle.css
php page here : http://whitecrook.ath.cx/resize/mainpage.php

This is a temp hosting, so there no db back end etc..

Anyway - I wonder if anybody could point out why the css layout doesn't seem to be working, and how I might fix it.

Regards,

<head>

Sweet that solved the white line in the gecko browsers.

Anyone got any ideas on the other issues?
